# Project Notebooks: Hide or show notebook sections on front-end

# Hide or show notebook sections on front-end

This article explains how to hide or show a notebook's different sections when being viewed from the front-end via the [Project Listing page](https://mjssoftware.com/docs/display-project-notebooks-on-project-listing-page/) access. This allows a notebook to be displayed publicly without requiring all sections of the notebook to be displayed.

*Prerequisites*: This task requires the user to have administrative access to the Project Notebooks plugin.

## Instructions

**Step 1**: Navigate to the **All Project Notebooks**area by clicking the menu item located under the **Project Notebooks** main menu item.

**Step 2**: **Click** a project notebook's title to edit the notebook.

**Step 3**: Locate the **Show in tab on public view**checkbox located at the bottom of each notebook section. Exact wording of this checkbox will depend on the section it's under.

**Checked** - Checking this box will display this section's information on the notebook's front-end page when accessed via the [Project Listing page](https://mjssoftware.com/docs/display-project-notebooks-on-project-listing-page/).

**Unchecked** - Unchecking this box will hide this section's information on the notebook's front-end page when accessed via the [Project Listing page](https://mjssoftware.com/docs/display-project-notebooks-on-project-listing-page/).

**Step 4**: Click the **Update** button to save your work.

 

The result of this task will control the display of the various sections of this notebook on the front-end. This allows you to share a notebook with others without having to display the entire content of the notebook.
